Chapter 278

There was a lot of noise, but Olivia could still make out Ethan and Chloe’s voices.

She could feel the irony. Her mother wanted her dead, but the man she hated was willing to trade his life for hers.

What expectations could she have for a mother like that? She used to sit at the entrance of her home and stare at the road Chloe drove off on.
